Has anyone put the 17x8 hypergram on a GTI with PP brakes?

I am looking at these for my carbon steel PPgti....no problems with vibrations...I like to drive fast and don't want to feel and vibrations at 90mph.

Ceramic coated all.of mine before I got tires mounted. Those wheel weights didn't want to stick. My finger hit it and came off. Even my HVAC tape I use to hold them on for the track doesn't like to stick all that much [emoji23]Ceramic coated the faces yesterday (coating the barrels after tires are mounted)
Having tires mounted today, and plan on installing them this weekend.

Yeah it's a hell of a drug lol. Gyeon wheel coating since it's built to withstand 500F [emoji3]And I thought that I was being irrational

Very nice! You will love how easy they are to clean now. I coated my new wheels before mounting them too. Love it!
Jarbear - Your car looks sweet. I like the way the Bronze and White go together.
I have a set of 18x8.5 Ampliforms(Graphite) arriving in a couple days for my Black MK7R with 245/40 Falken Azenis RT615K+. I'll post some pics once I have them installed. I am lowered slightly using the Eibach Prokit Springs so hopefully, I don't rub like I've read in earlier posts from other members. Crossing my fingers.
Thanks!
Thanks!
In terms of rubbing, I haven't encountered any yet, but I also haven't drive it hard yet with these wheels/tires.
Jarbear - I forgot to ask, what length lug bolts are you using? I know they're conical as opposed to the oem ball seat so I need to purchase a new set for these wheels. Correct me if I'm wrong but I see you also have a lock bolt? Any info on where you picked them up or link would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks in advance.
I bought 30mm bolts because I intended on running 3mm spacers in the rear (might eventually) so I bought ECS conical bolts that were 3mm longer than the stock 27mm. I bought enough for all 4 wheels.
I'll pm you about the locks
